Why add the HTTP protocol overhead? REST/HTTP would add ~75Mbps of additional traffic at 100k gets per second by saying there's a rough 100 byte overhead per request over the ASCII protocol. I base the 100 bytes by the HTTP GET request, minimal request headers and minimal response headers. The binary protocol is very terse in comparison to the ASCII protocol. In addition netcat or telnet works as good as curl for drop dead simplicity. Don't get me wrong, it would be neat, but shouldn't be considered in moderately well used memcached environments.
